Real Game Tsumego 2



Here you may find another position from one of my games. It often happens, that a small misstep in the endgame can lead to a lost game. This Problem is the follow up of a famous Joseki, that is used often in actual play.

Black dies:

Trying to resist with 2 and 4 leads to Blacks downfall. He is dead after the sequence to 7.
(Note that 6 one space higher has no effect.)

















Solution:

Sacrificing one stone with 1 is the correct approach to handle the situation, Black is able to make life in Sente.
